Wamdoodle posted:oneitis? The One. Your one true love, who you obsess over endlessly. A crush. I think they picked up that word from the Pick Up Artist community where the goal is to get your dick wet as often as possible so obsessing over one woman is a sort of disease. For PUAs women are just fuckbots waiting for the right input to spread their legs, you're a fool if you fall in love with one. Plus the real secret of PUAs is volume: keep negging dozens of strangers until you find one who responds to it, and ignore all the ones who tell you to gently caress off -- which doesn't work if you're only interested in one particular woman. Finding your one true love is an anathema. Which makes it a little odd for incels to pick up the term. But incels are odd.

Okay so the home invasion you've been praying for finally happens, but you are all soaped up in the shower when it happens. Luckily you foresaw this and keep a vacuum packed rifle in your shower. Now you just need to get it out of the packaging with your wet soapy hands before they break down the door. Hmm.

skooma512 posted:I've read(it) people there saying poo poo like "your pistol is for fighting your way to the rifle that never should have left your side in the first place". I don't know anything about guns, but inside your house I'd think a small pistol or a shotgun would be better since it's all going to be extremely close range? You're going to be trying to use it on people in the same room, or at best at the other end of the hall. Surely no more than 20 feet. You don't need or want a gun that will shoot through the wall and into the adjacent building or apartment.

Fagmaster posted:A lot of people use it as fancy word for assholes, there was a boom of articles about narcissist in popular sciences journals a while ago and after that all your basic dickheads became narcissist. Read an abnormal psychology 101 book and you'll come away convinced that you and everyone you've ever known is loving nuts with multiple serious disorders. Nearly everyone has some maladaptive traits, but very few people rise to the level of getting diagnosed with a personality disorder. Which is why psychiatrists have to be actual doctors and stuff, rather than letting everyone diagnose themselves with an online quiz. Another problem with amateur diagnosis is getting the wrong thing. Yeah, people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder are often lovely parents. So are people with Borderline Personality Disorder or Histrionic Personality Disorder or really any of the others. Even something relatively benign like Dependant Personality Disorder can be awful in a parent.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personality_disorder#Personality_clusters Mental illness sucks. It's likely that some of those people that are incorrectly diagnosing a parent with NPD did have a mentally ill parent, just not necessarily a narcissist. Any particular mental illness is rare, but mental illness in general is unfortunately not that rare.

It would be mean for a school age child, but the 3 year old probably doesn't give a gently caress. He won't have a huge expectation of what is "supposed" to happen on a birthday, and he won't have classmates making fun of him. Just cake and being fussed over will be a nice day.

haljordan posted:Why is he using a female condom with his sex doll A liner, so he doesn't need to hose down the doll every day. A female condom has a pair of rings that keep it from slipping in or out, which makes it superior to just using a plastic baggie. A male condom would probably make more sense, but this way he gets the sensation that he's loving a plastic bag bareback, rather than being constrained by a condom.

Nah, I have faith that gay dudes can be as lovely as anyone else. The problem with trying to develop a gaycel subset is that any time you have a bunch of them they lose their excuse, because they could just have sex with each other and no longer be incel. It might involve some travel, but there's your guaranteed bangbuddy. They can come up with other excuses why the meet can't happen, but they can't blame it on their clavicles.

The kid was there waiting to grab it because he had ordered a small of the same beverage, but this was a medium. Which, I mean, that could almost have been a mistake rather than deliberate theft? b) I assume the adult didn't want to escalate the situation. And since the staff were willing to make him a new drink he wasn't really out anything but 90 seconds of his time.

gbs but from 2004 posted:
Yeah, but it's not wrong. Folks who have the mental illness of only being attracted to 8 year olds but totally understand that is wrong and hosed up and never act on it aren't monsters, they are mentally ill. Meanwhile people who gently caress a kid should be set on fire, regardless of whether they have clinical pedophilia or not. Not demonizing the former is important, because we want them to get the treatment and support they need to help them not succumb to their mental illness. Unfortunately every attempt at helping that group of mentally ill people either get quickly infiltrated by kid fuckers, or burned to the ground by the moral panic brigade. The goal is fewer hosed kids. Helping people with the urge to gently caress kids to not gently caress kids serves the goal of fewer hosed kids. Driving those people underground so they are afraid to even talk to a psychiatrist does not serve the goal of fewer hosed kids. It's hosed up.

Kraanerg posted:What I find funny about reddit is how perfectly it demonstrates the inevitable conclusion of the libertarian/ancap political ideology redditors purportedly love so much—it’s exactly what you get with no moderation/regulation and no one likes it but they can’t make the connection between cause and effect. SA, with its paywall and strongly enforced moderation, is arguably a more “free” platform that the average redditor says they want but can’t bring themselves to accept is only possible under a structure that their entire identity is predicated in hating. To a point. We have baked in prejudices of our own, as well as gradually changing standards. For example, if a poster here tried to make a thread about how child porn might actually be a social good he'd be universally shut down. Every poster would condemn him and he'd be lucky if he just ate a probation instead of a ban. If not banned he'd be redtexted forever. Even a "well what if it is just simulated child porn and no actual children are hurt" would a firm NO. If you're at the stage in development where making a provocative argument just to see what happens (ie trolling) seems fun, child abuse is a landmine in SA that you may not see coming. Likewise we have standards that have changed over time. If a rockstar poster from 2003 was caught in a time warp and accidentally posting to SA2019 he'd probably be banned with a quickness for all the ironic racisim, homophobia, and transphobia, because sometime in the last 15 years we've realized that being ironically lovely is still lovely. Even the EVE goons had a cultural revolution a few years ago and toned it down. Haha, remember that time SA crowdfunded degrading scat porn? Yeah, that probably wouldn't fly today. To an internet libertarian having some discussion topics off limits is intolerable.

A Wizard of Goatse posted:Nah lying about going through with the procedure is still a legit crappy move on par with staging a birth control "accident" but it's not anything like comparable to insane melodramatic Shakespeare villain revenge on an innocent third party. Yeah, they both did hosed up things. But by law and custom the kid you raised as your son for 15 years IS your son. You've already invested so much that even from a pragmatic point of view you're better off continuing that investment for the next few years in hopes of an eventual return on investment rather than flushing it down the drain. Someday you'll be old and sick and having a kid and potentially grandkids who care about you can be useful for you. Cutting off the kid while alienating his mom and sister leaves him in a situation where he'll effectively have no next-of-kin to speak for him. He's infertile so he'll likely never have kids "of his own" to take up that role. My mom lives in a care home now and the residents whose disinterested family only visits a few times a year are sad, but not as sad as the ones who are utterly alone in the world.

Araenna posted:There was a series of posts on r/legaladvice and I think r/relationships where a guy wanted to give his baby up for adoption, because his wife didn't like being a mother after all. He also didn't want to give it to the grandmother who desperately wanted it because it would make holidays awkward. So apparently at least 3 people exist who would exile their own child out of their lives, and then try to bar their family from seeing them because holidays would be awkward. Or he could also be a troll pulling from that old post as well I guess. It seems really odd to me that he was worried about awkward holidays. I have at least two in-family adoptions I know about and it's not weird at all. In those cases it was teenage girls with no dependable baby daddy giving their babies up to relatives, not married 30 year olds, but it's no big deal. That's just what happens in a large family when someone can't take care of a spare baby. Unlike strangers, with a family adoption you know what kind of screwed up your kid is going to get. I suppose it's not as common these days as it was 50 years ago, but it's still not some weird unheard of thing.

The best case scenario here is that she's a sorceress who used his body parts for a spell that makes him unwilling to ever leave her or cheat on her. Evidence: he found the creepy box and still isn't even considering leaving her. Sure, losing your free will sounds bad, but presumably she can also do spells for health, prosperity and good crop yields so there's a real upside.
